Patient's question:
My period is delayed by 7 days. Last month it was on the 23rd, and this month it's on the 30th. Also, the amount is much less than before. I want to ask how to calculate my ovulation period this month, and whether it should also be pushed back. Besides, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and they said I need to have a fallopian tube examination. I heard that this test involves radiation. Would it be okay to do it during ovulation to avoid any impact?Doctor's answer:
In clinical diagnosis, tubal contrast examination does not cause significant radiation harm to the human body and is a commonly used examination item in gynecology. Tubal contrast examination is performed 3-7 days after menstruation, and sexual activity is strictly prohibited for three days before the examination to prevent interference with the contrast effect. Ovulation usually begins 9 days after menstruation and generally does not interfere with menopause. Gynecological diseases cause significant harm to patients, and once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, patients should pay attention to self-care training, consume more fruits and vegetables, and avoid stimulating foods. It is hoped that gynecological patients can receive professional treatment.
